But everyone on the forum already speaks English, what's the logic behind this statement?

Like Corn said, if it's held somewhere like, say, Germany, then everyone should probably speak German or they'll have a hard time getting around. Everyone on the forum speaks English, so getting around the UK isn't as much trouble.

Ahahahahahahaha

Aha.
Sorry, for a moment I thought you were suggesting Europeans don't speak English.
Oh, wait you were.
Tal, pretty much everyone in all of the EU speaks at least passable English, especially those in public facing jobs such as hotels, restaurants and shops

Tsk, I think you're missing his point. He wasn't suggesting Europeans don't speak English... He was suggesting that Europeans do speak English so everyone here could get by in the UK easily

Precisely this. Sorry if I didn't get it across well. I was just saying it would be easier for everyone in Europe to, say, read signs and talk to natives in the UK than it would be for everyone in Europe to read signs and talk to natives in Germany (or somewhere like Bulgaria. ._.).

But all the natives speak English and none of the signs have actual text beyond names and the word 'STOP'.
On the other hand, to go to the UK everyone but the Brits need to cross a sea and exchange euros for pounds.

Stardust recalls many people in Europe not speaking English while she was there. I'm simply putting the UK forward because English is their primary language, and it's the primary language of that of the forums as well.

Now, your euros/pounds argument has a lot more merit, on the other hand. That's enough to make me change my mind. That and what Cody so kindly mentioned above.
